Robots, man! Amazon’s Next Big Strategy Could be a Personal Home Robot

And naturally, lots of companies and tech firms have tried to realize that fantasy over the years. The problem has been tackled by large tech giants like Samsung, and promising startups lead by robotic experts and AI researchers.
